This is my entry in Ripped Off! 2006, a rip off of Tracey Green's Carp 2. The work is done in copper in a technique called repousse`. Repousse` is the manipulation of a flat sheet of metal into a three dimensional form using a series of punches and a pitch bowl. Tracey's original drawing was a Chinese brush watercolor ACEO. I like Tracey's brush work and especially this picture. Thanks, Tracey, for inviting me to participate!
